Instead of creating tons of new threads for this everytime I make a new caption I'll just post em all in here. Even if I dont' update it for months at a time, this is where I'll post em now. :P

First off a rare peek at me learning alchemy! (I know this pic has been used before, but when I got the idea for this, I couldnt' resist!)

Never steal from a Gypsy

Now for a couple of big ones. This one and the next one are using 'songs' I've written. They are done to the tune of other songs I've heard.

First up 'The Glass Bubble' which is done to the theme of 'Iris'

I've actually wanted to do a caption for this one for awhile, but untill now could never think of a good caption for it.

This next one is fairly big for the small pic, but I hope that doesn't hurt it. The song it's done to is called 'Broken Wings' which is a song that only plays during a certain episode of Digimon Season 4. Unfortantly it's not avalible any other way. (I ripped it myself)

-A side note for that last one. You had no idea how hard it was to get the text color changes in there!-

It's like past 4:00 AM here, but since I'm on a roll, here's another one!

Ok! Ok! seriously now Here is one last caption. A possible MSF banner!

The movie that shot is from (The Cat Returns, very good movie BTW) shows the movies title screen during that part. (which I edited out) As you can see it looks like the girl is looking up at the title which made me imagine her saying "What's that title doing up there?"

This caption idea quickly came about because of that thought. :P

I have more I wish to do, but for now rest!

I hate spelling errors. :/

In 'Broken Soul' That 'would' in the "would be kittens and rainbow" obviosly should read "wouldn't be kittens and rainbows"

I'll see if I can fix that later.

I've read many of your short stories and CVaptions, and they almost allways seem to have a simular theme to hem, sometimes more familar then I'd like to admit, lol.

More than one caption of an ethereal feminine being who brings rebirth to an otherwise stifled life. One, may I add, with a reaching out, glowing hand.

Hey, I'm not complaining. Actually, it makes me happy you're open to that sort of theme. But I would remind you how close you are to embracing the very thing you claim to hate -- in fact, I wanted to warn you before you repulsed yourself with it. It'd be sad if you did something that you wound up really hurting yourself with.

Otherwise... awesome, awesome captions.

A+

Akemi, the diffrence here, is that the "victims" were willing in both of them. They didnt change them, becuase the enties wanted, they changed them becuase the "victim" wanted.

Actually Jobecchi only 'The Glass Bubble' can be considered eternal, and yes I knew what I was doing when I captioned it. Really I believe that's what eternals SHOULD be doing. Seeking out people like Martin there.

As for Broken Soul? That wasn't an eternal at all. She was in fact an 'ex-ovalisk'

That was Yumiko, the green haired ex-ovalisk I met in my story called 'Eternal' You know that one where I argue with her about how I can't stand ovalisks?

Little tibit, that line "To pay for the sins of my past" ?

She's reffering to the time she spent as an ovalisk.

True, but I could start a whole debate as to what people "want", and it'd probably involve Sigmund Freud at some point. Needless to say, human psychology is a wee bit more complex than any binary system.

Ive always wondered what Freud and Dali said to each other...

I don't know and i don't want to know, May. I don't know if Dali actually was disturbed or just wanted to portray an image of being disturbed but Freud most certainly was. He had some scary and disturbing ideas.

I have no idea what you people are talking about. Now stop derailing my topic! :P

we're not derailing, just contemplating deep ponderous thoughts invoked by the captions :oops:

:P
